GM to launch Volt in California next year
General Motors will launch its hotly anticipated Chevrolet Volt electric car in California next year, the company announced Wednesday.
GM vice-chairman Bob Lutz said the Volt, which can be charged by a conventional electrical power outlet and can run for up to 40 miles (64 kilometers) without fuel, would be released in California in late 2010.
Other markets for the car, which analysts expect to retail at between 30,000 and 40,000 dollars, would be announced later Lutz said.</em>
